The Psalms

Psalm 20

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

 20:1Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble;

 The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;

 20:2Send thee help from the sanctuary,

 And strengthen thee out of Zion;

 20:3Remember all thy offerings,

 And accept thy burnt-sacrifice;

Selah

 20:4Grant thee thy heart's desire,

 And fulfil all thy counsel.

 20:5We will triumph in thy salvation,

 And in the name of our God we will set up our banners:

 Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions.

 20:6Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed;

 He will answer him from his holy heaven

 With the saving strength of his right hand.

 20:7Some trust in chariots, and some in horses;

 But we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.

 20:8They are bowed down and fallen;

 But we are risen, and stand upright.

 20:9Save, Jehovah:

 Let the King answer us when we call.
